Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the 2017 Laureus World Sports Awards at Sporting Monte Carlo’s Salle des Etoiles on Tuesday. Charlene wore Valentine red and a very interesting pair of earrings.

Charlene loves statement earrings, but this pair of shoulder-grazing diamond earrings are some of the longest she’s worn to date. They appear to be Art Deco (or deco-inspired) in their design. I haven’t heard any provenance or designer information on them yet.

I know that I’m generally in the “more is more” camp when it comes to diamonds, but for me, these are just too long. They’re not flattering with the outfit.

Here’s a better look at the dress. What do you think about these major diamond earrings?
